Bill.com Receivables provides SMBs and their accountants a simple way to create invoices or sync them from QuickBooks Desktop, send invoices to their customers, send reminders and track payment status. Their customers can view existing and past invoices using a free online portal and pay directly from their bank account. Invoices can be paid directly to the issuer’s bank account at $0.49 per transaction, helping Bill.com customers alleviate costly credit card merchant fees, eliminating trips to the bank to deposit checks and providing faster access to their funds. Invoiced customers can also send messages to clarify or dispute charges with the Bill.com user directly within their online portal, maintaining a complete audit trail of vendor-customer communications. Email templates and invoice platforms are customized to include the user’s company logo, and all relevant banking information is retained securely on Bill.com for future use.

In addition, Receivables is integrated seamlessly with all current Bill.com features, enabling users to review cash flow in real time on the Bill.com calendar, synch with QuickBooks Desktop, and maintain a full audit trail of cash in and cash out.

"It took me a long time to come to grips with having to accept credit and debit cards and paying the high merchant fees, but Bill.com Receivables has allowed me to eliminate this expense. It’s also saved me considerable time and hassle because I no longer have to fill out deposit slips and take the deposits to the bank," said Jack Witeck of Jack Witeck & Associates.

Bill.com is offered to the accounting profession exclusively though the Bill.com Accountant Program from CPA2Biz, a subsidiary of the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA).
